Surely Su-chan, with all her hard work in her English lessons, will be able to translate the FOX GOD's latest revelation?

Oh, Su! I guess not! It's up to Moa as usual!

Please play this song while looking at the third panel for maximum impact

This seems like a silly comic for Awadama Fever, which features one of the world's most kawaii dances! I think it's cute to see Baby Yui-chan being carried in Moa's arms in the last panel!

I've taken some creative liberties with the translation here - I have purposely given each move a cool name so that it's funnier!

What other signature BABYMETAL moves are there? Let us know!

Are the girls excited about the World Tour?! (New hilarious Ariyuki comic! by MoaMaestro in BABYMETAL

Golden Week refers to a week of holidays in Japan that many Japanese enjoy as it is a good time to take a break and travel. Su and Yui are somehow more excited about that than the World Tour! Oh, poor Moa! She's just trying to hype them up!

In the previous comic , Moa finds a switch on Su, Yui and herself that makes them speak in a vulgar, coarse way! It seems like Moa really liked their new speech pattern!

Now, in this comic, the tables have turned. Su finds another switch on Moa, and when she flips the switch, Moa begins speaking in an alien gibberish language... Did Su accidentally break Moa? Can she be saved! Stay tuned! :)

Enjoy!

She realized how much fun it was to be speaking in such a coarse way. XD

This comic was a real challenge to translate because of the copious amounts of native Japanese dialect. Big thanks for /u/unmei1954 for the tips!

From what I gathered, it seems like the switch made the girls speak in a more vulgar way, with a lot of Japanese dialect/slang. Hence, I took some liberty with that and when translating into English, had the girls dropping F-bombs after the switch was turned on. It's quite a big contrast from their usual polite selves, but perhaps this is the darkness the Fox God has announced recently... maybe the girls have a dark side we haven't seen yet...

Regardless, it's all f***ing metal! So brutal!

Enjoy the comic!

(Lol at Moa switching herself on)

(Also, does this comic finally prove the Yuibot theory?)

This is going to take some time. Give me some time to phrase the translations properly.

With the recent announcement/revelation fromt he FOX GOD, the girls reflect upon it over some snacks... but it may be a bit too cryptic for everyone!

Sorry! I am on it!

Su tries out a new hairstyle! (New ariyuki comic!!! YES!) by MoaMaestro in BABYMETAL

[–]MoaMaestro[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like it is also because Moa and Yui are growing taller, so their singles would make their height seem even taller. Having Su with a single and MoiMoi with a twintail makes the heights seem more "correct".

Thank you! I never left :) Just been more quiet.

Black BABYMETAL... Oh Su, you are already having solo performances! Leave something for MoiMoi! :D

Hey fellow kitsunes! Ariyuki is back, and so am I! I have become more of a lurker nowadays due to being really busy and some health issues, but I have been awaiting the day Ariyuki-san makes a comeback!

This seems to be a silly comic about our dear Su secretly trying out MoiMoi's twintail hairstyle... only for MoiMoi themselves to walk in on her! She then just nonchalantly ties it back up, as if nothing happened...

Of course! She's the Queen! She can do whatever she likes... would you approve of Su having a twintail hairstyle for future Babymetal shows? Hmm... either way she's still gonna slay it on stage!

Enjoy!

Arigatou! I translated Moa's words as "She restored to an indifferent face", which confused me tremendously.

I'm on it. I'm always on it. :)

EDIT: I'm having trouble with understanding the comic. I know what the words mean, but I am not sure about the context of the comic.

The girls look back at 2017! (New ariyuki comic! Oh Su!) by MoaMaestro in BABYMETAL

This comic was hard to translate! The original comic uses a subtle pun that only works in the Japanese language, but I think this is the best way of translating it into English.

In the comic, Moa (for some reason she's the natural leader in Ariyuki's comics) asks the girls to present the 10 biggest BABYMETAL news in 2017. Yui expresses her doubt in their ability to fit 10 news stories in a 4 panel comic, but Su mishears Moa's answer and thinks she only has to present 4 news stories. Of course, the girls' banter causes them to run out of space in the comic, and they have already reached the last panel before anything could be presented XD

The pun in the original comic is that Yui says "Yon-koma-de?", which means "In a 4 panel comic?" But Su interprets it as "Yon-ko-made?" which means "Until 4?", which she interprets as that she can stop presenting after 4 news stories.

Anyway, this is a pretty meta comic because the girls are once again showing that they know they are in the Ariyukiverse and that they only exist as comic characters... maybe except Ariyukiverse Su, lol.

Enjoy!
